Question

multiple choice question which of the waves shown in these images have the same amplitude? waves 2 and 5 waves 4 and 6 waves 3 and 6 waves 1 and 2

Explanation:

Step1: Understand the concept of amplitude

Amplitude is the maximum displacement from the equilibrium position (mid - line) of a wave.

Step2: Analyze each wave pair

• For Waves 2 and 5: Their amplitudes are different.
• For Waves 4 and 6: Their amplitudes are different.
• For Waves 3 and 6: Count the number of grid units from the mid - line to the peak (or trough). Both Waves 3 and 6 have the same vertical distance from the mid - line to their peaks (or troughs), so they have the same amplitude.
• For Waves 1 and 2: Their amplitudes are different.

Answer:

Waves 3 and 6
